  • Black Cabs (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Keith Prince
    • Meeting date: 05 March 2020
    Keith Prince AM: First of all, Mr Mayor, thank you for attending the Haven House event last week. It was very gracious of you to come along to that. Continuing on black cabs, one of the big issues of course is around The Knowledge and the massive drops we have seen in the number of black cab drivers doing The Knowledge. I have actually seen advertising for people to do The Knowledge, which is something I have never seen before. What can we do about that, Mr Mayor? What plan do you have to do about it?

  • TfL Inefficiency (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Susan Hall
    • Meeting date: 05 March 2020
    Susan Hall AM: Mr Mayor, there is real growing local support and a very positive campaign from the splendid Elliot Colburn MP [for Carshalton and Wallington]. Will you start to seriously consider the extension of the Overground from West Croydon to Sutton?

  • London's transport policies (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Lord Bailey of Paddington
    • Meeting date: 05 March 2020
    Shaun Bailey AM: Mr Mayor, on 7 February [2020] 97% of Unite bus drivers voted to strike over fatigue and safety. A week later, you announced that bus drivers would receive an extra £34 million in bonuses. How many more trade unions can expect this kind of hush money?

  • London's transport policies (Supplementary) [5]

    • Question by: Susan Hall
    • Meeting date: 05 March 2020
    Susan Hall AM: First of all, bravo for those questions. Thank you very much, Assembly Member Arnold, for that. I am sure the Mayor is as surprised as I am - for once we will share an emotion - that the Assembly Member for Harrow and Brent did not even mention the wretched Metropolitan line, which has been a complete disaster for the last year. We have had nothing but trouble being turfed off trains and so on. Mr Mayor, I will ask you: are you happy with the service that -- Tony Arbour AM (Deputy Chairman): Hang on, Assembly...

  • London's transport policies (Supplementary) [11]

    • Question by: Tony Devenish
    • Meeting date: 05 March 2020
    Tony Devenish AM: Mr Mayor, going back to Assembly Member Arnold’s question about tin-eared anti-customer service culture, in many ways the best question I have heard in the entire four years from this Assembly, I have a suggestion for you. Will you consider involving the retiring Deputy Chair and Chair of the Assembly in the recruitment of Mr Brown’s successor? We have to sort out customer services. It is a shocking set of customer services. TfL does many things well, but customer service is not one of them.

  • Mayor's Opening Statement (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Tony Devenish
    • Meeting date: 05 March 2020
    Jennette Arnold OBE AM (Chair): I would not normally take a follow‑up question from the Member who has put that question because this is not Mayor’s update but because of the publicity and the concerns that I know of and a number of Members have raised about Hammersmith Bridge, can I ask Assembly Member Devenish if he has anything briefly to say in response to the Mayor? Tony Devenish AM: Good morning, Mr Mayor. As you know, it has been shut for 11 months, Hammersmith Bridge. We still do not have a direct plan of when we are going to...

  • TfL Inefficiency

    • Reference: 2020/0930
    • Question by: Keith Prince
    • Meeting date: 05 March 2020
    4 years ago, in your manifesto, you claimed that TfL was “inefficient and flabby”. Can you name one piece of flab that you have cut?

  • Resources

    • Reference: 2012/0016-2
    • Question by: Steve O'Connell
    • Meeting date: 08 March 2012
    Steve O'Connell (AM): Turning to resources, I know recently you have written to the Chair with an update on your thoughts around PCSO numbers and improvement and that letter has been copied to us, so thank you for that.

  • Victims of Crime (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Tony Arbour
    • Meeting date: 08 March 2012
    Tony Arbour (AM): I have been looking at this card, and I have to say I am not sure I agree with you, Kit, that people do not expect criminals to be caught. I seem to recall Kit Malthouse (Deputy Mayor for Policing and Crime): They do. Tony Arbour (AM): the saintly Sir Robert Peel [Home Secretary who established the Metropolitan Police Force in the 1820s], when he put down the things of people being caught and brought to justice; no mention of that on the card. The key thing about this card which I note is that it says...

  • Victims of Crime (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: James Cleverly
    • Meeting date: 08 March 2012
    James Cleverly (AM): Following up from Victoria's questions about particularly young victims of crime and their confidence in policing, and I do not want to go crashing into one of the issues we have later on, but we are going to be touching a little bit on disproportionality. From memory, from the feedback we get from the sectors of the community who are least confident interacting with the police, the young tend to be less confident than the older generation. Black and other ethnic minorities tend to be less confident than the white population. Specifically with young, potentially black victims...
